Melatonin Powder/N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine

Product Overview: High-Purity Melatonin
1. Product Overview

Melatonin, chemically known as N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine, is a naturally occurring hormone in humans and animals, primarily secreted by the pineal gland in the brain. Known as the "darkness hormone," it is a key endogenous substance that regulates the body's circadian rhythm (biological clock) and sleep-wake cycle.

As an internationally certified manufacturer of pharmaceutical raw materials and plant extracts, we provide high-purity melatonin synthesized using advanced biotechnology. Its molecular structure is identical to natural melatonin, offering extremely high bioavailability and safety, and strictly complies with European and American pharmacopoeia standards.
